Description UP FOR AUCTION HERE IS A HOUSE THAT I BOUGHT LATE LAST YEAR IN STOCKHOLM, MAINE THAT I WAS GOING TO REMODEL. I'M WAS NEVER A BELIEVER OF THE SUPERNATURAL BUT THIS AREA IS RUMORED TO BE A HAVEN FOR GHOST, UFO SIGHTINGS AND PARANORMAL ACTIVITY. I HAVE BEEN TO THIS HOUSE ONCE AND WILL NOT GO BACK FOR ANYONE! ON THE DAY THAT I WENT UP THERE TO LOOK AT THE HOUSE I TALKED TO AN OLDER GENTLEMAN IN A RESTAURANT WHO LIVED NEAR THE TOWN FOR OVER 40 YEARS AND HE TOLD ME OF SOME OF THE STORIES THAT WERE TOLD OF THE AREA THAT I BOUGHT THE HOUSE. HE KNEW OF THE HOUSE THAT I HAD BOUGHT AND TOLD ME THAT IT HAS BEEN VACANT FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS. TO ME OF COURSE, THEY WERE JUST STORIES AND I LISTENED IN STRIDE, ALMOST THINKING THAT THIS GENTLEMAN WAS PROBABLY A FAN OF STEPHAN KING, (OR READ TOO MANY STEPHAN KING STORIES). AFTER HAVING THE SUPPER AT THE RESTAURANT I LEFT AND DROVE UP AND FOUND THE HOUSE. AFTER SEEING THE OLD GREYING COLOR OF THE WHITE SIDING OUTSIDE OF THE HOUSE FOR THE FIRST TIME, THE STORIES THE OLD GUY TOLD ME STARTED GOING THROUGH MY HEAD. IT LOOKED OLD FOR SURE AND I REMEMBER THINKING, "IF HOUSES COULD ONLY TALK, WHAT WOULD THIS ONE HAVE TO SAY". I GRABBED MY CAMERA AND STARTED TAKING PICTURES OF THE OUTSIDE. THE LAND AROUND IT WAS OVERGROWN WITH VEGETATION, WEEDS, BUSHES AND WHATEVER ELSE YOU CAN THINK OF. BY THE TIME I HAD GOT MYSELF THROUGH THE VEGETATION, THE SUN WAS GOING DOWN SOME BUT THERE WAS STILL ENOUGH LIGHT LEFT TO TAKE SOME PICTURES OF THE INSIDE. WHEN I WALKED THROUGH THE DOOR A FEELING CAME OVER ME THAT I WAS BEING WATCHED. I WAS THE ONLY ONE THERE. I LOOKED IN THE ROOM TO MY SIDE AND SEEN NOTHING SO I LOADED ANOTHER 3 1/2 FLOPPY DISK INTO MY CAMERA AND RAISED IT, READY TO START MY INDOOR PICTURE TAKING SPREE. NOTHING HAPPENED WHEN I CLICKED THE SHUTTER BUTTON. I CHANGED THE FLOPPY DISK AND TRIED AGAIN AND STILL NOTHING. I DID THIS AT LEAST 7 TIMES IN ALL, EACH TIME NOTHING WOULD HAPPEN AND I COULDN'T TAKE ANY MORE PICTURES. I FIGURED THE CAMERA MAY HAVE WENT BAD OR THE BATTERY MIGHT HAVE WENT DEAD ON ME. I DROVE OVER 100 MILES JUST TO SEE THIS HOUSE AND TAKE PICTURES OF IT SO THEN TO ME IT WAS A WASTED TRIP, BUT AS LONG AS I WAS THERE I MIGHT AS WELL HAVE A LOOK AROUND THE PLACE, AFTER ALL IT WAS MINE AND BOUGHT AND PAID FOR. I STARTED WALKING UP THE OLD CREAKING STAIRWAY FINALLY REACHING THE TOP AND LOOKING INTO A SMALLER ROOM. IT WAS GETTING DARKER OUTSIDE AND THE DAYLIGHT WAS MINIMAL SO NOW I HAD TO DEPEND ON MY FLASHLIGHT. UNLIKE THE CAMERA, THE FLASHLIGHT WORKED FINE SO I TOOK A LOOK AROUND AND WHAT I SEEN WAS SOMETHING THAT I CAN'T EXPLAIN AT ALL. THE DAYLIGHT WAS GONE YET THERE WAS LIGHT ON ONE WALL THAT SEEMED TO BE COMING THROUGH THE WALL FROM THE OTHER SIDE. THE LIGHT I SEEN LOOKED LIKE THE OUTLINE OF A DOOR, BUT IT WAS A SOLID WALL WITHOUT ANY DOOR IN IT. I TURNED MY FLASHLIGHT OFF FOR A QUICK SECOND JUST TO MAKE SURE THAT IT WASN'T A REFLECTION, IT WASN'T! THE LIGHT WAS STILL ON THAT WALL AND TO THIS DAY I CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHERE IT CAME FROM OR WHAT CAUSED IT. THERE ARE NO STREET LIGHTS AND THERE WASN'T A MOON OUT THAT NIGHT. THE OTHER THING THAT I HEARD WAS SOUNDS. ONE SOUNDED LIKE THE SCREACHING OF A CHAIR AS IT WOULD SOUND IF SOMEONE WOULD SLIDE IT OUT FROM UNDER A TABLE. ANOTHER SOUND WAS OF A DOOR ON A KITCHEN CABINET BEING SLAMMED SHUT. ANOTHER SOUND THAT I DISTINCTLY REMEMBER WAS THAT OF FEET RUNNING THROUGH THE LOWER FLOOR OF THE HOUSE. NOT A LIGHT SOUND, BUT A FULL BODIED HEAVY SOUND NOT LIKE A HUMAN WOULD HAVE MADE. THAT WAS THE TURNING POINT OF MY TRIP. I GOT OUT OF THERE AND CAME BACK HOME AND HAVE NOT BEEN BACK SINCE AND I HAVE NO INTENTIONS OF EVER GOING BACK THERE AGAIN. I'M NOT A PERSON WHO IS "WEAK OF HEART" BUT I'M ALSO A PERSON WHO IS NOT STUPID AND KNOW WHEN TO LEAVE AN UNFAMILIAR SITUATION. AND JUST SO YOU KNOW, MY CAMERA WORKED FINE AFTER I LEFT THE HOUSE.   _____________________________________________ ABOUT THE HOUSE ITSELF: The house has a living room, family room, dining room, kitchen, bathroom, 2 bedrooms  (1 is an upstairs loft). From information that I already had, there is a foundation and basement, there is a furnace in the basement but condition is unknown. the house does have electric but power is not turned on as no one lives there, (or put otherwise, no humans live there). IT SITS ON AN ACRE OF LAND AND THE HOUSE ITSELF SITS BACK FROM THE ROAD AND ALMOST CAN NOT BE SEEN FROM THE ROAD AT ALL. THE PROPERTY IS LOCATED ON A WELL MAINTAINED PAVED ROAD AND IS LOCATED IN THE SMALL TOWN OF STOCKHOLM, MAINE. PROPERTY TAXES ARE APPROX $200.00 A YEAR. There is an outstanding restaurant in town, a small family owned grocery store and gas station, post office, American Legion, Museum and three churches, this property is only a five minute walk from any of these. There are annual canoe/kayak races held on the river.  The closest town with amenities would be Caribou (20 minutes).  Hospital/Grocery Store/Movie Theatre/High School/Banks, etc are located in Caribou.  Closest Wal-Mart/Lowe's/Staples/Penney's/mall are located in Presque Isle (30 minute drive).  Presque Isle also has a small airport.  Elementary School students would be bussed to nearby New Sweden (another small community) and High School Students are bussed to Caribou HS. FROM WHAT I SEEN OF THE HOUSE, THE HOUSE DOES NEED WORK INSIDE AND OUTSIDE TOO, PAINT OR NEW SIDING FOR ONE THING. I DIDN'T GET TO SEE MUCH OF THE INSIDE BUT WHAT I SEEN OF IT DOES NEED WORK LIKE SOME SHEETROCK, CARPETING, ETC. ALSO THERE ARE BROKEN WINDOWS THAT NEED TO BE REPLACED. ALSO, THE HOUSE DOES SEEM TO SIT ALONE, QUITE A WAYS AWAY FROM ANY NEIGHBORS. IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO DO A MAPQUEST SATELLITE IMAGE OF THE PROPERTY, JUST EMAIL ME AND I WILL SEND YOU THE PHYSICAL ADDRESS SO YOU CAN SEE IT FOR YOURSELF FROM THE ARIAL VIEW. I SEEN THE GOOGLE SATELLITE IMAGE AND CAN TELL YOU THAT THE HOUSE IS SURROUNDED BY WOODS SO IF YOU'RE A HUNTER YOU'RE PROBABLY GOING TO LOVE THE SPOT BECAUSE THERE IS AN OVERABUNDANCE OF BLACK BEAR, MOOSE, DEER AND MANY OTHER SPECIES OF WILDLIFE LIKE FOX, BOBCAT, COYOTE, RACCOON AND MUCH MORE. THERE'S ALSO LOT OF LAKES, RIVERS, STREAMS AND PONDS IN THE AREA TOO IF YOU LIKE TO FISH. _____________________________________________ SINCE MY VISIT, I HAVE LOOKED UP GHOST STORIES AND PARANORMAL THINGS FOR STOCKHOLM, MAINE AND HAVE FOUND QUITE A FEW THINGS THAT ANY PARANORMAL EXPERT OR GHOSTHUNTER WOULD LOVE.
